Almost without a second thought, Jon undid the tie of his bearskin cloak and draped it over the girl's shoulders. Daenerys was always cold, and he had always done his best to help her, as they were both so much of and not of the Starks at the same time. When the silver-haired girl wasn't around, Robb would joke that her unease with the Northern chill was because Daenerys was part dragon. Jon had seen flashes of light and strength in her from time to time that made him wonder at the idea.
He shrugged, sitting down beside her. Immediately, the godswood settled his nerves as it always had. "Most coin is being laid upon Father-- Lord Eddard-- being named the new Hand to King Robert, and that he would be fool to refuse. Seems that would mean moving the family and the better part of Winterfell's people down to King's Landing."
Jon sighed. "Sansa is of the opinion that move would not be one undertaken by a bastard son, as-- in her opinion-- I'd be an embarrassment to Father's new station." The words were bitterly said, all the more for so likely being true.
